Would an outgoing president ever be eligible to run again? If so, after how long? After the next 4 year term?

Hmm....I could go either way. So I'll say that a former president can not run in the election immediately following his no confidence. But then he is eligible for any future full election (so five years minimum between terms).

By the way, if there's no vice president, who breaks ties in the Senate?

Good question. I resolve that by giving Puerto Rico, Guam, and DC each a senator with a 1/3 vote. No more ties. Or, just give the vote to the president (which is essentially what it became once the 12th Amendment was passed).
